Funny Unix commands

When you have been doing Unix systems administration for several years, you start to gather a stash of comical commands that get passed around from sysadmin to sysadmin. The torch is passed between the old and the new, the torch that lights up the day of what commonly can be perhaps a day of drudgery. What follows is a list that I have gathered over the years. Some copied from other sources, some from IRC, some of my own creation. Granted, given the various flavors of Unix and Linux, your millage may vary, but they are fun to read nonetheless.

>From the csh (c shell):

% make love
Make: Don’t know how to make love. Stop.

% got a light?
No match.

% sleep with me
bad character

% man: Why did you get a divorce?
man:: Too many arguments.

% rm God
rm: God nonexistent

% make ‘heads or tails of all this’
Make: Don’t know how to make heads or tails of all this. Stop.
